Barbara Zangerl
Johannes Mair (2015)
For many years Barbara Zangerl was known as one of the best female boulderers in the world, as one of the first women to climb class 8b. At the age of 19 years and at the top of this career a back injury - the end of the career? Eager and ambitious, Barbara started alpine climbing. With a completely new attitude to climbing she tries her hand at the hardest alpine routes: 'End of Silence' - first started by Thomas Huber, Stefan Glowacz's 'Des Kaisers neue Kleider' and 'Silbergeier' by Beat Kammerlander. Due to their challenge and beauty, all three extreme climbing routes are considered milestones in alpine climbing and have gone down in alpine history books worldwide as the 'Alpine Trilogy'.- 2015
